Role of blockchain technology in critical infrastructure security
Digitization has been the biggest boon for mankind, it has made the work faster, and business operations more seamless, but at the same time, it has also increased the probability of cyberattacks. The vulnerable platforms make it easy for hackers to intervene in the system and cause a data breach. The growing use of digitization has led to shaping up of various malicious attacks like malware, ransomware, phishing attacks and data manipulation. Well, the impact of these malicious attacks is not limited to just an attack on data, rather there has been some massive destruction like the one in Ukraine in 2015 which led to the shutdown of the power grid. Hence, there is a need to gauge through the use of the present platforms and make it infallible. Blockchain can prove to be helpful here.
